Now that I have some free time from school and such, I can work more on Sky Warrior! :D
During this time, I've been experimenting with Sky Warrior's mechanics to make the next one more fun and interesting.
========Experiments===============

Black Hole Death Explosion: Damages enemies within range when you die. Black hole can be toggled. Press "4" to suicide. (Not functional in gameplay)
Aim in any direction: Hold "z"
Dynamic Backgrounds: This experiment starts off in the Infinite Ocean, then turns pitch black, and then fades into a mysterious gas planet (inspired by the Darius games)
Flashlight: Press "f" to toggle
Upgraded Bullet Shooter and Multiple Weapons:
You can have up to 12 bullets on screen (This number is subject to change and can be altered when you switch weapons).
At the moment, there are ten of varying quality. To change weapons, go into "world.my first method", find the method "BulletShooter.SwitchWeapon" and change the "Weapon" parameter to an integer from 0 to 9.
Muzzle Flash: Your ship has a muzzleflash when you fire.
New Enemy: The floating thing in front of you (Not functional, but its armor causes your bullets to ricochet off (mostly functioning correctly))

I'm not sure how resource hungry this thing is, but if it can run on my school's computers, it should be able to run on your computer! (hopefully) :D

Tell me any suggestions, comments, or complaints you have!

Sky Warrior has not been forgotten!

Enjoy!

Glad to see you're still working on this. So far it's been excellent.

Looks awesome. I think a weapon that you can charge up would be cool. And for some reason the surface of the gas planet makes me think of the final form of the final boss of EarthBound.

Thanks! :D
I was actually intending for the player to charge the E-Laser weapon before firing it. Maybe I can get to that later...
And for some reason the surface of the gas planet makes me think of the final form of the final boss of EarthBound.
(looks at game again)
I see your point...
I think I'll keep this background! :D
I think it would better resemble Earthbound's final boss if it was red and black, and weird(er) sounds and music were going on in the background...
Edit: OMG I just turned it red. It looks just like the final boss... :0!!!
